WHY IT EXISTS

Founders don't stall at business.
They stall at paperwork.

Most first-time founders are ready to do the work. What stops them is the maze in between — which entity to choose, where to file, which taxes apply, what licenses their city wants, and which contracts protect them before the first sale.

The Blueprint turns that maze into a calendar. One clear focus each week, one outcome to complete, and a real business at the end — legally formed, tax-registered, and open for customers.

THE TWELVE-WEEK JOURNEY

Idea to open, one week at a time.

Four phases. Twelve weeks. Every week ends with a real, finished outcome — not just a lesson.

PHASE 1 · FOUNDATION · WEEKS 1–3 Validate, decide, and secure your identity.

HOW IT WORKS

Five principles behind every screen.

01

One focus per week. No multitasking. Each module drives a single, finished outcome.

02

Action-first. Every screen leads to doing something — not just reading about it.

03

Visual over verbal. Flowcharts, trackers, and infographics replace walls of text.

04

Mobile-native. Built phone-first: cards, swipeable steps, tap-to-complete checklists.

05

State-aware. Checklists and templates adapt to your entity type and your state.

65%+

Completion target — what we design every module to deliver.

5–15%

Typical completion rate for online courses. The bar we're built to beat.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Built to be done, not just read.

12

Fillable PDF templates

Business case, operating agreement, contracts, invoices — ready to complete.

16

Infographics

Entity comparisons, tax maps, timelines, and decision trees.

REAL FOUNDERS · REAL FILINGS

Twelve weeks later, they're open for business.

“I'd been 'about to start my business' for two years. The week-by-week calendar is the only thing that ever got me to actually file. I'm officially open.”

MARCUS T.
Photography Studio · Atlanta, GA

“The Decision Engine picked my entity in eight questions. No lawyer, no $1,500 bill. LLC formed, EIN in hand, books connected — all before week seven.”

RENATA J.
Freelance Designer · Brooklyn, NY

“By week twelve I had contracts, a payment processor, my first real sale, and a 12-month compliance calendar. For one dollar to start. It's almost unfair.”

DEREK M.
Specialty Coffee · Chicago, IL

Questions, answered.

What happens after the first week?+
After day 7, your subscription renews at $29/month. You keep full access to all twelve weeks, every template and tool, ongoing support, and the Ongoing Compliance Hub once you graduate. Cancel any time — no contracts, no fees.
Do I need a lawyer or an accountant?+
No. The Decision Engine, pre-filled filings, and state-aware checklists are built so you can choose your entity, file, register for taxes, and set up clean books without hiring anyone. Real advisors are on call 24/7 if you get stuck.
Are state filing fees included?+
Your full program access is included. Government charges are paid directly to the agency at cost — your EIN is free from the IRS, and some states charge a formation fee. We show you exactly what to expect for your state before you file.
What if I already started my business?+
Skip the weeks you've already done. Existing owners use the Blueprint to close compliance gaps — register for the right taxes, set up proper bookkeeping, get licensed, and put real contracts in place.
How much time does each week take?+
About 2–4 hours. Each week is one focused outcome with tap-to-complete checklists, designed to be finished on your phone between everything else you have going on.
What's the refund policy?+
30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. If the Blueprint isn't right for you, email us within 30 days of enrolling and we'll refund every dollar.
Can I talk to a real person before I start?+
Yes — call (888) 710-7056 anytime, 24/7. A licensed advisor will answer in under two minutes.
